The recruitment dept are digging through the plodder market bin as we speak .. the club must have a wallet full of money as they certainly are not spending it .

You don't know squat about what the club is doing. All your bitching and moaning will not make a scrap of difference. You will find out what is happenimg when the club tells us.

You go on and on about so called plodders.

So tell us all who would you recruit? Make sure that they are available and in the positions we need.

I think that we need three backs and three forwards.

How about you?

Plenty of high quality players in all the positions required have been available over the last twelve months … why the club has not signed any who knows but please do not say the shelf is bare who’s fault is that at this stage of the year .. no moaning just realistic comments from a supporter that will be watching other teams compete in the semi final season .. and yes the team is full of plodders that is why I will be watching other teams for the next month.
 
Nothing to do with our recruitment but sheesh, eels are shopping Corey Norman who is on apparently $980k 😱pen_mouth: via fox.

Yep heard it was $940k next year, raiders are their best chance, but eels are not stumping up enough cash apparently.

Add to that, Michael Jennings is apparently on $800,000.
Look Kenny Edwards is a knob I agree, I did mention he is a nut case. But as far as on field impact and performance goes his the exact kinda player we need to strengthen the squad.
Maybe not Edwards someone else similar. But every team has one and we are desperate for that kind of individual. Beggars can’t really be choosers, however as this is a Signing Suggestions thread I’ve put mine out there, from those opposing I’m interested to see / hear who others would nominate as a potential impact player, on the market???

Imagine having Edwards and Hipgrave in the same team. They'd probably take turns going to the sin bin every 10 minutes for the full eighty :laughing:

Brisbane face a battle to retain Tevita Pangai Jnr in the face of huge offers from NRL rivals

PETER BADEL, The Courier-Mail

an hour ago

TEVITA Pangai Jr has fielded monster $3.2 million offers from Sydney-based NRL rivals as Broncos captain Darius Boyd urged Brisbane to keep a forward he says can be better than Jason Taumalolo.

The Courier-Mail can reveal Pangai Jr has become the most sought-after player of the NRL finals, with Brisbane facing a multimillion-dollar battle to retain their most explosive young forward.

Up to five NRL rivals, including Newcastle, have formally registered interest in Pangai Jr as he prepares for Sunday’s sudden-death finals blockbuster against the Dragons at Suncorp Stadium.

The off-contract 113kg Tongan tearaway has received several written offers, spanning three or four seasons, worth $800,000 annually.

That puts enormous salary-cap pressure on the Broncos, who have already outlaid millions this season to retain fellow young guns Jaydn Su’A, Payne Haas and Jamayne Isaako.

The Broncos have also upgraded Queensland Origin back-rower Matt Gillett, while prop Matt Lodge and Corey Oates — a four-try hero against Manly last week — enter the finals this week without contracts for next season.
Pangai’s raw power has made him hot property.

Brisbane’s fight to retain Pangai Jr was underscored last week following revelations the former Junior Kangaroos skipper flew to Newcastle for talks with Knights officials.

Now the battle has intensified, with the Broncos hoping Pangai Jr’s loyalty to coach Wayne Bennett can be a key factor in staving off big-money poaching raids from cashed-up NRL rivals.

Pangai Jr played junior football in Newcastle and Broncos skipper Boyd had three seasons at the Knights between 2012-14.

While Boyd has no interest in influencing Pangai Jr, he urged Broncos bosses to win a bidding war, saying the 22-year-old has the potential to surpass Cowboys wrecking ball Taumalolo.

“He can be a Jason Taumalolo in his own right,” Boyd said. “He can be as destructive, if not better, than Taumalolo.

“The sky is the limit for Tevita, he has a great work ethic and football brain.

“I’ve been to other clubs and I know how professional the Broncos are, but it’s up to Tevita to decide what he wants to do.

“I just really hope the Broncos can find a way to keep him.”
Hunt becomes the hunted

Pangai Jr is currently attempting to sever ties with his manager. Their agreement expires in November, meaning the Broncos hulk will not finalise his future for 2019 until after this year’s grand final.

The Broncos remain hopeful of keeping Pangai Jr, with Boyd lauding his development this season.

“He is an exciting talent, he is a special forward,” he said.

“He got a lot of confidence in that Tongan camp last year (at the World Cup) playing with the likes of Taumalolo and Andrew Fifita.

“Tevita has definitely risen this year and it is because of the things he learnt with Tonga’s performance at the World Cup.”
